Forget the previous post below. I'm embarrassed that I misread a release from the Democratic National Committee posted at Fox Business as if it were a Fox Business news piece.The kicking of my own ass continues....

Recommend please.If there's one thing I've enjoyed doing on this site, it's tearing Hillary a new one.But in recent days, I've had a change of heart, just as some Hillary supporters have had (e.g., Allsburg's apology;) concerning Obama. You see,...
I used to bash Hillary when I thought it was warranted. No more.From this point forward, I will make no post and recommend no post that airs a past or present grievance against Sen. Clinton. It just doesn't advance any...
There have been multiple, awkward attempts to appeal to Hillary supporters for the sake of party unity, including one by yours truly that was interesting, if not successful. All of them were doomed to failure for two simple reasons.The first...
There are limits to what Obama and his supporters can do to achieve party unity. The onus, however, is on Hillary Clinton and her supporters.Hyper-aggrieved Clinton partisans here tend to blog that 1) it's time for unity even if Obama...
Not long before Super Tuesday, I made the following entry in blog at my.barackobama.com. I thought some of you, like me, could use some uplifting perspective.There's a train about to leave the station, and it's name is the Obama Express....
Hillary Clinton proved tonight she loves nothing so much as herself.Rather than admitting defeat and laying down arms, she spit in Obama's eye and dared him to cross her private army of followers.After a few obligatory sentences of conciliation, she...
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports Missouri State Rep. Maria Chappelle-Nadal will endorse Obama today. Nice way to start the day."This is a year that the mere existence of a single candidate, Barack Obama, has inspired people in my district to...

Now taking suggestions for "Best End-of-Primary Race Song." I may be giving this too little thought, but here's one to get things rolling.The winner will receive a 2,678-disc boxed set of DVDs reprising the entire campaign....
Boston Globe reports Obama has picked up four superdelegates today, bringing him just 44 delegates shy of the 2,118 needed to win, by the latest AP tally. And it's not even 2:30 p.m. Central Time.Can he make it five? Six?Is...

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Sen. Hillary Clinton announced at a press conference here today that she is abandoning her bid for the Democratic nomination to run for the papacy of the Roman Catholic Church. Her move hands the hard-fought...
I continue to support Barack Obama, but what's right is right. Much as it pains me to defend a woman who repeatedly has manipulated sympathies of gender and race throughout this campaign, basic intellectual honesty compels me to side with...
What did she mean by that yesterday?For the answer, let's look at Hillary's remark in the context of the campaign, the news of the day (Friday), the remark itself and Hillary's own frame of mind. In the end, I think...
The visceral reaction lingers, but what happens next will be more interesting. Here's my predictions:* The press will be playing catch-up for a few days, downplaying the seriousness of Clinton's remarks at first. They get that people are upset, but...
